Isaiah 37:5

5 et venerunt servi regis Ezechiae ad Isaiam

Isaiah 37:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 37:5

So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
] And delivered the above message to him from the king: these servants are mentioned ( Isaiah 37:2 ) . Musculus thinks that the third and fourth verses are the words of the king to the messengers, and not of the messengers to the prophet; and that the first clause of the "third" verse should be rendered, "that they might say unto him"; and having received their instructions, here is an account of their going to the prophet with them, which they delivered to him, and which it was not necessary to repeat. The Arabic version reads this verse in connection with the following, thus, "when the servants of King Hezekiah, came to Isaiah, Isaiah said to them"
